Summary

Provide a brief summary of the issue or suggestion.

I have a folder on my cloud mega drive with all kinds of files.

I added a new empty folder on my computer to have it sync'ed with the cloud folder.

The moment I sync this folder on my computer, the files on my cloud folder are gone.


Steps to Reproduce (For Bug Reports)

List the steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. New folder on computer
  2. Added local folder sync to cloud folder

What happened?

Cloud folder with files got emptied


What did you expect to happen?

According to your landing page the Mega sync app would check both local and Mega folder.

I would have suspected that there would be a sync happening from Mega to Local. Or at least the option to tell the sync direction from Cloud to Local.

  • OS: e.g., Windows 11 / macOS Ventura / Ubuntu 22.04
